Caribbean Community (CARICOM) leaders ended their 51st annual summit here on Wednesday saying that the decisions taken during the four day event ‘reaffirm that CARICOM remain united in purpose and determined in action.
‘Together we will continue building a Caribbean that is more resilient, more prosperous, more connected and better prepared for the future generations,’ St. Lucia’s Prime Minister Phillip J Pierre told the closing news conference.
Pierre, who is also the chairman of the 15-member regional integration grouping, said the discussions over the past four days had been ‘guided by one central objective (and that is) ensuring that CARICOM delivers results that people can see and feel in their every day lives.
‘The true success of CARICOM will not be the number of decisions we make, but whether our people see and feel the difference those decision’s make in their every day lives,’ Pierre said.
